معرفی
Andrew Gaudet is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin, affiliated with the College of Liberal Arts. His research focuses on neuroinflammation, biological clocks, and spinal cord injury mechanisms. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia and completed postdoctoral training at Ohio State University and the University of Colorado Boulder.
Education:
- Ph.D., University of British Columbia (Neuroscience)
- Postdoctoral Research: Ohio State University (SCI cellular dynamics), University of Colorado Boulder (biological clocks and neuropathic pain)
Research Interests:
- Neuroinflammation and spinal cord injury repair
- Circadian rhythms' impact on neuroinflammation and recovery
- Sex differences in anxiety and pain behavior
- Axon regeneration and neural plasticity
Articles: Recent work explores neuroinflammation modulation, circadian rhythm disruptions post-SCI, and sex differences in anxiety/pain behavior. Themes include novel behavioral testing protocols (e.g., TIDAL conflict test) and microglia roles in aging.
Awards: None explicitly listed, but his research has attracted funding for circadian rhythm investigations in SCI repair.
Lab/Teams: The Gaudet Lab develops multi-faceted approaches targeting SCI repair, neuroinflammation control, and behavioral neuroscience. It employs rodent models to study mechanisms linking molecular changes to functional outcomes.
